I was minding my own business when....
The shoot for his latest movie, The J-Team, brought him back to Boston for the next two weeks and Austin Caine found himself excited at the prospect. He'd get to hang out with Anya again, if her schedule allowed, and they could go out for burgers again or just hang out and talk cars or motorcycles. She was a fun girl to be around and Austin liked when she'd call him up to chat or ask about things like going to the Stark Charity Ball.

Maybe he'd take the time out to get fitted for a new tuxedo today after filming wrapped.

Right now, he was on set working with Christian Bale, who played the leader of the J-Team, Julian Jameson. Austin played Jarrod Jennings, the technical support guy of the group.

"The good news is that I can have the zero-watt generator built in two days, J. The bad news is that it'll have to be stationary unless I can call a friend of mine to help with the work. She's tough to track down, but she's worth every penny in the brains department." Jarrod says, and Austin smiles inwardly at sneaking a shout out to Anya into the movie.

"Make the call, J." Julian says.

Less than thirty feet away, a catering truck explodes and everyone is thrown to the ground, knocked senseless from the blast.

Austin is pretty sure /that/ isn't part of the script.

Anya had been doing some monitoring duties to put off doing her homework. It was boring and stuff she didn't feel like doing.

The monitors changed and displayed the news about the explosion on a movie set in the area. Didn't Austin say he'd be filming in the area?

Anya didn't wait to remember. She jumped up and raced to put her suit on.

A few moments later Iron Girl was flying toward the set.

Austin opens his eyes, not sure how long he's been down. He looks around at the people lying on the ground and blinks, not sure he's seeing all of this correctly.

Shaking his head, he rolls over and starts crawling toward Mr. Bale, the closest unconscious person he can see.

"Hey, Christian? You okay, man?" he asks, trying to get a response out of him.

A car goes sailing over his head, narrowly missing smashing him flat and Austin looks around for the source of the disturbance.

	Iron Girl did a quick scan as she approached. She saw a car go flying through the air and she turned on the speed. She caught the car and tossed it out of the way. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Austin had never seen a real superhero up close before. His head was still ringing something awful, so he supposed he could be hallucinating, but on the off-chance he's not...

"Hey, thank you much. I think my castmate is hurt. I'm gonna call an ambulance." he says, reaching for his phone.

The mutant who attacked the movie set had done his job. He wasn't getting paid to fight a superhero, so he started running for it.

	"See to him," Iron Girl said and rocketed after the fleeing mutant. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Superspeed and flight are not powers that this mutant possesses. When Iron Girl comes rocketing after him, he turns, firing a blast of kinetic energy at her in the hopes of throwing her off. Then he fires at a couple of random people as well, trying to get her to focus on something else. If he can just get to a crowded area, he can lose her, or so he hopes.

	Anya got caught point blank by the blast of kinetic energy and was throw backward. She landed on the ground with a loud clatter. Okay, that hurt and was unexpected. Slowly she climbed to her feet and took off after the mutant again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The mutant keeps running, but he's not in great shape and the quick pace he's keeping starts to take its toll. He runs into an alley a few blocks away from the set of the movie and hides behind a dumpster to catch his breath. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya showed Austin to the guest room and then the two of them headed for the rec room after grabbing some snacks and drinks from the kitchen. They grabbed seats on the couch and Anya cued up one of his movies. She got comfortable and leaned against him. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Yeah, I get a little weird about watching my own movies. I always pick 'em apart over what I could have done better." he says. "What's your favorite movie?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Casablanca it is," she said with a grin. "Aristotle, please play Casablanca. Thank you." "Of course Miss Stark." And the movie started playing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Austin sits on the couch, watching the movie. He may even place an arm around Anya as they sit and watch. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya woke and a smile appeared on her face when she realized there was a warm body next to hers. For a second things were perfect. A second later she remembered that Steve wasn't home and it wasn't him next to her on the couch. She sat up and rubbed her face. Austin was still asleep. The two of them had fallen asleep on the couch watching Casablanca. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Anya did look to see what time it was and it was already two in the morning. They had been asleep for awhile and none of her teammates woke them up. Not surprising, but it did make Anya wonder what they were now thinking. "I should probably get you in bed." Blink. "/To/ bed." She could feel the heat reaching her cheeks. "You should go to bed."

	Anya blushed more. "You're sweet." If her heart didn't already belong to Steve, she would have taken him to her bed. "Come on," she said and took his hand. "I'll walk you to your room and I will go to mine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I do appreciate that, because this place is huge." Austin says, taking Anya's hand. He gets up and follows her to his room. "Thanks again for lettin' me stay. I feel pretty safe here." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
